Your second year is a time to build on what you started, keep your momentum going and take meaningful steps forward toward your academic, personal and professional goals. We’re here to help second-year students thrive by providing the tools, experiences and opportunities needed to make the most of this year and carry that momentum forward on campus and beyond.
Whether you’re building confidence, strengthening connections, exploring new opportunities or figuring out what comes next, your second year is about turning progress into momentum.
Get Involved
Your second year is the perfect time to find your people and make South feel even more like home. Explore student organizations, campus events, leadership opportunities and new experiences that help you build connections, discover what matters to you and keep your momentum going.
